Component:ValueMultiplexer

Value Multiplexer`1 component as seen in the Scene Inspector

This article or section is a Stub. You can help the Resonite Wiki by expanding it. ValueMultiplexers allow to curate a list of values and drive a target with one of them.

They implement IValue which means that a reference to them can be used to create a Source node representing the currently indexed value. This enables using them like arrays when combined with a Source of the Index field.

Usage

Fields

Name	Type	Description
persistent	Bool	Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server.
UpdateOrder	Int	Controls the order in which this component is updated.
Enabled	Bool	Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't.
Target	field drive of T	A field which is driven with the currently selected
Index	Int	0-based index that determines which value of Values has been selected; values outside the range [0;length-1] are wrapped around internally.
Values	direct SyncFieldList`1<T>	A list of values which can also individually be driven or written to
AllowWriteBack	Bool	Setting this to true redirects writes to Target or to a Source representing the selected value to the currently indexed list entry.

Behavior

The component behaves similar to a ValueCopy with the list entry indicated by Index as its Source. Changes to Index or the list entries will affect Target whenever the drive is evaluated.

On the other hand the Source of this component updates instantly.

Examples

Array-like access from within ProtoFlux. Note the setting of AllowWriteBack and that you can only access a single value at a time!
